Probably we will see more on the db size in the future. This is what I understood so far. I wonder if it makes sense to set the db size as big as possible and divide entire db device is by the number of OSDs it will serve. E.g. 10 OSDs / 1 NVME (800GB) (800GB - 10x1GB wal ) / 10 = ~79Gb db size per OSD Is this smart/stupid?
